No intention to be crass. This is an open mailing with thousands subscribers and
perhaps some people may have similar questions or want to find out how relay
flags work.

As an additional resource the guard probability graphs in Tor metrics relay page
of be of help to visually get some indications and for reference (perhaps)
compare it to other relays.

I hope this may help someone.

Sorry again for any confusion and thanks for running relays.


Cheers,
